A federal judge on Monday allowed Georgia to purge 309,000 names from its voter rolls but he also scheduled a second hearing to hear additional arguments.Via The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. About 309,000 names were set to be erased from Georgia’s list of registered voters Monday night, a mass cancellation that a federal judge allowed to move forward. A voting rights group, Fair Fight Action, said in federal court Monday that the registration cancellations target roughly 120,000 inactive voters who would otherwise be eligible to participate in elections but are being removed

I absolutely believe that we need to crack down on voter fraud but removing voters because they haven't voted recently is wrong.
FTA, "roughly 120,000 inactive voters who would otherwise be eligible to participate in elections but are being removed because they haven’t cast a ballot since at least 2012."

The lapsed voters have the option to renew if they are indeed alive and still living in Georgia and 200,000 of them are not named Juan Valdez or Mohammed.

Need to clean up the voter lists...the democrats are of course against it because they can't use dead voters...said it before,
1. one day voting, NO prior voting
2. Absentee only if a doctor will certify you are bed ridden
3. Do not allow anyone to make out a ballot for someone else
4. Make voting day a National Holiday so no one can say they didn't get time to vote
5. Picture ID with name/address that matches voter poll book
6. NO registration on voting day, if you haven't registered by a month ahead, you don't get to vote.
7. Stick your finger in indelible purple ink, no pansy style 'I voted' stickers.

Excuse me? I understand purging dead voters, illegal alien voters, double voters (two states), etc...But to purge someone from the roles because they didn't vote in ONE presidential election? Midterms usually don't have as high a turnout. I wonder who funds the group. I'm a little confused if Stacey Abrams is fighting it but am short on time. Would appreciate input from anyone familiar with the particulars.

While a judge may order names struck from a list of active voters, I have no trouble believing that those names will be bundled up and sent to the local democrat party office. There the names can be parceled out to democrat volunteers who on voting day, will move from polling place to polling place using their list of names to 'same day register'. Then they vote the straight ticket D.

Why did the headline remind me of a scene from Zulu?

Isn't this a violation of the right for dead people to vote under the Voting Rights Act ? Maybe even a violation of the Deads'civil rights.

It is the law in Georgia... that's why the judge is allowing it. Voters who are to be purged are sent a letter to respond to before they are purged. No response, you are purged. If you haven't voted in more than 7 years, chances are you are not going to start now.

I’m sorry, #3 but I disagree. There are 24/7 jobs out there. Police, Fire, Doctors, nurses and so on. I’m a paramedic. I work 24 hour shifts. Last year, I worked every holiday and Election Day. Many of the others, I’ve listed, work 12 hour shifts. They would not be able to make it to the polls before or after their shifts. I live 45 miles from my job. I can’t just have a holiday so I can vote. We can’t just shut down the hospitals so that employees can go vote. Do I not get to vote ??
I am a taxpayer. I am a law abiding citizen. I raised two sons. Both served in the Marines. One is now a cop. Both are solid citizens. They are married and have children. They are raising their children as I raised them. Doesn’t the fact that I have through my life done things that have made this country a better place matter ?
Why shouldn’t people like me get to vote ??

#10 you should get to vote. Your employer should make available time for you and all your co-workers to vote ON ELECTION DAY. If that means that there have to be extra folks on duty to cover, then so be it. As a taxpayer I am paying now for lots of totally BS worthless junk. Paying a tiny bit extra for our emergency workers of all kinds to be able to vote is great.
Long voting periods makes it much easier on the fraud perpetrators, vote on ONE DAY.

Only a leftist would sue over a level playing field.
